11630 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No.
45 / Wednesday, March 9, 2005 / Notices
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: The CASAC, which
comprises seven members appointed by
the EPA Administrator, was established
under section 109(d)(2) of the Clean Air
Act (42 U.S.C. 7409) as an independent
scientific advisory committee, in part to
provide advice, information and
recommendations on the scientific and
technical aspects of issues related to air
quality criteria and national ambient air
quality standards (NAAQS) under
sections 108 and 109 of the Act. The
CASAC, which is administratively
located under the SAB Staff Office, is a
Federal advisory committee chartered
under the Federal Advisory Committee
Act (FACA), as amended, 5 U.S.C., App.
The CASAC complies with the
provisions of FACA and all appropriate
SAB Staff Office procedural policies.
The Clean Air Act requires periodic
update of the Air Quality Criteria
Document (AQCD) for Lead. Air quality
criteria documents for the ‘‘criteria’’ air
pollutants for which national ambient
air quality standards are established
provide the scientific bases for these
NAAQS and are to reflect the latest
scientific information useful in
indicating the kind and extent of all
identifiable effects on public health or
welfare that may be expected from the
presence of such a criteria air pollutant.
The previous version of the AQCD for
Lead was completed in 1986, with a
Supplement completed in 1990. EPA’s
National Center for Environmental
Assessment, Research Triangle Park, NC
(NCEA–RTP), completed the Project
Work Plan for the current revision of the
Lead AQCD and released it for public
comment in January 2005. EPA has
prepared this Project Work Plan for
Revised Air Quality Criteria for Lead to
communicate the process and timeline
for development of a revised AQCD for
Lead.
Technical Contact: Any questions
concerning EPA’s Project Work Plan for
Revised Air Quality Criteria for Lead
should be directed to Dr. Robert Elias,
NCEA–RTP, at phone: (919) 541–4167;
or e-mail: elias.robert@epa.gov.
Availability of Meeting Materials:
NCEA–RTP has posted the draft Project
Work Plan for Revised Air Quality
Criteria for Lead on the National Center
for Environmental Assessment Web site
at URL: http://cfpub.epa.gov/ncea/cfm/
recordisplay.cfm?deid=113963. In
addition, the SAB Staff Office will post
a copy of the final agenda for this
teleconference consultative meeting on
the SAB Web site at: http://
www.epa.gov/sab (under ‘‘Meeting
Agendas’’) in advance of the CASAC
teleconference.
